Colin uttered as he whipped out wet wipes from his pockets. He cleaned my right hand meticulously until the wet wipes were no longer wet. Originally, I thought that cleaning only my right hand was rather odd since we normally washed both of our hands. I wondered if I should give him a reminder.
But when I saw Winston's angry-but-too-afraid-to-speak expression, Colin's pout of jealousy, and his contempt, I got the full picture immediately-he was trying to erase any trace of Winston on my hand.
I had to say, men were crazier than women when they were jealous. I shook Winston's hand. That was all. Did Colin have to overreact? Moreover, he could have toldthat he wanted to look for a bigger apartment back home. Did he have to mention it in front of Winston? His mentioning of a private drawing stualso indirectly indicated that he didn't want Winston and I to hang out together.

After Colin left, Winston remained fazed for a while before he snapped back to reality. He straightened his back and uttered, "Luna, your boyfriend is so possessive of you. He won't let anyone touch you." That was an exaggeration, but it wasn't that far from the truth. I smiled and said nothing. It was true. Colin was mad with jealousy. If Winston had held my hand for another second longer, he would have erased him from existence.
More and more students arrived, and Crystal House beccrowded. Everything went extra smoother when one was in a good mood. We talked and enjoyed each other's presence until noon.
At around 11:00 am, several students said that we should have a feast. Why? Because I was away for a few days and they wanted to throwa homecoming party.
Right when we discussed excitedly where we should go, Colin came, still brooding. His hands were behind his back, and he walked like a military instructor. What distinguished him from a woman who cto confront her cheating husband was hysteria.
I covered my mouth and sniggered. Everyone there majored in arts, so they knew who Colin was. When they saw his strict posture, they hushed and stood up to greet him. Especially Winston, whose face was twitching uncontrollably.
Recalling the way Colin cleaned my hand earlier in the morning, I chuckled out loud, which only made him glare at me.
"Professor White, what brought you here? We're working on our assignment, and I assure you we'll all submit it in time," said a brave soul.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmColin's poker face gave way to an amicable expression. He rested his hand on my shoulder and grinned widely. "I'm here to pick up my girlfriend. No need to be so tense. Relax." "What? Luna, you're dating Professor White? Why didn't you tell us?" "A pretty girl dating a handsteacher. Now that's what I call a good match." "What a perfect couple! Gosh, I'm gonna start shipping them right now." A rather short guy saw that the woman next to him was about to faint. He then used this occasion to achieve his dream-holding a woman's hand.
Everyone liked to be complimented, and I was no exception. They looked ver at us in envy as they fangirled and cheered foudly for us. We all forgot that moments ago, we were discussing where to go for my homecoming party.
Satisfied with everyone's reaction, Colin usheredto his SUV as everyone gave us their blessings. Just like that, the topic of the homecoming party disappeared before it beca thing. S Colin droveback in the evening before returning to campus to work overtime. We were away from school for a long time, and .previously, Colin had to put a project he nearly completed on hold. As a result, he needed to tie up the loose ends.
